Distract, apply, & reward!

With a distraction in tow (we love training treats or maybe their favorite toy) clean up any excess dirt or debris evident around the affected area. Use two fingers or a low-absorbent cloth to apply a generous amount of Paw Soother directly over your dog’s paw pads. Paws will be slick after application so allow the area to dry (a nice belly rub always does the trick!) and follow up with a treat or play time for a positive reward!

Repeat one to three times daily. Consistent and frequent application to open wounds is crucial to protect against infections & harmful bacteria. Decrease application as the area improves.

Pro-pup Tips: 

• Applying before bedtime is an ideal time when your dog is at rest and the body goes into regeneration mode
• Many customers have used baby socks affter applying Paw Soother to prevent licking and to create an ultra healing environment
• For the most pawsome results, use with our PawTection balm for added protection and to prevent potential injury

WHAT IS PAW SOOTHER RECOMMENDED FOR?

Paw Soother is ideal for the following:

• Dry, Chapped, Rough Paws
• Peeling & Cracked Paws
• Hyperkeratosis of the Paw

WHAT IF MY DOG LICKS IT OFF?:

Natural Dog Company products are 100% natural, safe and edible. Our products will still work even if most of it is licked off. Though, for best results, we advise using distractions. Give your dog a raw bone to chew on, a yummy treat, dinner, or play with them for a few minutes until the carrier oils have had a chance to work it’s magic. We hear peanut butter works great!

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I APPLY PAW SOOTHER?

The more often you are able to apply Paw Soother to your dog's paws, the better. We recommend applying at least 2-3 times per day - especially before bedtime when bodies are healing and regenerating. Once your dog's paws are healthy, you can reduce the frequency of applications and still maintain soft, smooth, healthy paws.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PAW SOOTHER AND PAWTECTION?

PawTection is used to prevent damage, while Paw Soother is used to heal existing damage. PawTection is a natural wax blend, so it provides a nourishing barrier between the paw and harsh surfaces and conditions such as hot pavement, sand, salt, ice, and snow. Paw Soother is a butter blend meant to smooth, soften, moisturize and heal dry, damaged, peeling, and cracked paw pads. Think: PawTection before going outside, Paw Soother before bed. Both have amazing collaborating qualities – making them the pawfect team!
